This tutorial was written for the Flash Designer software, which allows you to create flash animations in a much easier way than by using Macromedia Flash. You may get Flash Designer here.
Add "Skip Intro" button to larger Flash animations so inpatient or dial-up users can go straight to your home page.
Use "Skip Intro" button on preloader frame.
- Launch Flash Designer and choose "Blank Animation". Choose "Frame" > "Frame Size" to set movie dimensions.
- Choose "Movie" > "Edit Preloader"
- Choose "Button Tool" and draw a button in the right bottom corner.
- Double-click the button to rename it, enter" "Skip Button" and click OK.
- Choose "Item" > "Action" > "OnClick", check "Get URL" and enter the URL of your home page (the page after the intro). The URL must be absolute (begin with http://)
- Choose "Movie" > "Go to Main Thread" to quit preloader.
